After the Meal, Part Two

"Whoa~ So big! So white! It feels just like the 'Hyperbolic Time Chamber.'

If we train here for half a year to a year before going out, won't we be invincible?"

Oshi saw the scene behind the door and rushed in impatiently, unable to resist punching the air.

"Is the space here infinite?"

Obe followed closely, but crouched down and gently stroked the ground. The sensation from her hands was so strange, she couldn't think of anything similar.

"Unfortunately, the time flow here seems to be the same as outside, so we can't train like in 'Dragon Ball.'

As for the space, I don't know, I haven't explored it yet.

And, more importantly, our consciousness stays here while our bodies outside are completely defenseless. We need to be very careful."

This was something Ra had specifically noted. It was fine outside the door, but once inside the mental space, all senses of the outside world were instantly cut off.

Here, one cannot focus on two things at once.

"Eh~ Then what can we use this place for? A chat room?"

Hearing Ra's explanation, Oshi, who had the attention span of a goldfish, immediately felt a bit bored.

"It can be used as a mobile storage. I tried it and can wrap inanimate objects with divine power to bring them inside."

"Isn't that just like a spatial ring from novels? That's pretty good too."

Oshi almost instantly thought of those essential little items in fantasy novels.

"It might have other functions too. We can develop them later. For now, let's leave. We can't leave our bodies unattended outside for too long."

"Eh? Aren't we going to check out the other rooms?" Oshi still wanted to see other worlds.

"You can't enter them yet."

After saying this, Ra's figure disappeared outside the door, her consciousness returning to reality.

She couldn't rest assured leaving the three of them defenseless for so long.

However, with the mindset of "since we're already here," Oshi still dragged Obe to push the black doors, but naturally, they didn't budge at all.

"Phew~ By the way, Ra, how did you open those black doors in the first place? I feel like they're welded shut."

Trying to open doors within the Millennium Puzzle's space was completely different from the outside. The essence of it was to connect one's spirit to another world.

Therefore, even if the door wasn't opened, the mere process of attempting to open it required terrifying spiritual power to support.

This was why Oshi, who theoretically possessed a body that didn't tire, was slumped on the ground, exhausted.

"Back then, I also used all the divine power within my body to dispel the black mist, and barely managed to open a crack.

You probably won't be able to push that door open completely in a short time."

"Phew~ It... it still requires divine power? And what exactly is that sticky black mist?"

"I suspect it's something like a seal.

After all, although the black mist looks dangerous, it doesn't have much offensive power. It just acts as a barrier."

Ra recalled the sensation of touching the black mist. It felt like glue, firmly sticking the door shut.

"But luckily, we can use divine power to counter and dispel it."

"Divine power, huh... Speaking of which, Ra, why can you use divine power so effortlessly, but we can't use it at all?"

After the outburst that morning, the divine power within the two girls had once again retreated like startled cats. No matter how much they called out, there was no response.

"I'm not sure about that either. That divine power feels like a part of my body. Wielding it is as simple and natural as breathing."

"Damn it, I'm so jealous! Could it be... Ra, you're the real genius!"

Oshi pouted, but seeing Obe silent beside her, she couldn't resist teasing:

"Hmph hmph~ Looks like someone's boast as a 'little blue-haired genius' is about to be blown away~"

"Hmph↑↓ I haven't sunk so low as to be mocked by someone with the intelligence of a six-year-old."

"Who are you calling a six-year-old?! You look younger than six! You shorty! Stinky brat!"

"You...!"

"Alright, your arguing time for today is up."

Ra lightly clapped her hands, smiling like a kindergarten teacher to stop their bickering.

"Speaking of divine power, let's put the Millennium Puzzle aside for now. The immediate priority is to guide the power within your bodies out.

This is an unfamiliar world, and we don't know what dangers await us. While it's safe now, we should make necessary preparations."

It had been almost a day since they crossed over, and the three of them had no clue about this world. They hadn't encountered anyone they could communicate with yet.

Moreover, even if they did meet someone, they couldn't be sure if the people of this world would be friendly towards them.

After all, three helpless but elegant lolis were quite dangerous even in less safe areas of Earth in their past lives.

"Okay, Teacher Ra~"

When it came to controlling power, Oshi was no longer sleepy.

She had long been incredibly envious of Ra's display of fire control that morning.

Besides, she had already transmigrated and lost her second brother; if she didn't get some superpowers now, wouldn't her transmigration be a waste?

"But Big Sister, what exactly are we going to do?"

Obe remembered the power surge that morning. Although she and Oshi hadn't been seriously injured, they had been unconscious for several hours because of it.

"I've thought about this problem too. It might have been too direct and violent that morning. After all, it was your first time, and you might not have been prepared.

So this time, I plan to proceed gradually, starting by letting you get familiar with the feeling of divine power flowing within your bodies."

Ra's idea was simple. The power currently within Oshi and Obe was like a sealed lake. Directly excavating it would inevitably lead to a flood.

But if they dug and cleared the channels beforehand, then guided the lake water in, allowing it to flow in slowly along the channels, they could rest easy.

"Give me your hands. Although the Three Phantom Gods have different authorities, pure divine power should be no different. I'll be careful this time."

Hearing Ra's words, the two little ones obediently handed over their hands. Even though the attempt that morning had failed, they still had absolute trust in Ra.

Ra gently held their small hands with her slightly larger ones. A faint, gentle power slowly flowed into their bodies. Just as she expected, there was no rejection reaction.

"Mmm~ So warm... Gurgle gurgle~"

"That's right, just like the sun."

Oshi and Obe both wore blissful expressions, like two kittens basking lazily in the sun.

This time, Ra was very patient. The divine power circulated within the two of them, and with each circulation, a wisp of their own divine power was brought out.

Finally, through repeated circulation, Ra's golden divine power grew fainter and fainter, while the crimson and blue-black divine power belonging to Oshi and Obe gradually took the lead
